Hello everyone,
My grandad is currently awaiting dementia diagnosis, his doctor has been brilliant with us and exhausted every other avenue before referring to MC so we are pretty sure now. I'm
Also a care assistant so I was pretty sure anyway.
At the moment my nan is panicking, she thinks that she will loose her house if he has to be cared for (although it may seem a long way away he seems to be deteriorating rapidly)
How does this work? If grandad did have to have 24 hour care would they pay for it with there house even though it would essentially make her homeless? Although he doesn't fully understand, it's really stressing him out at the moment, he keeps talking about them loosing the house.
My nan has made an appointment with a solicitor to get POA, however they are charging £750, is this correct?
Any help would be much appreciated as we really don't know where to turn to for advice
TIA
